In the afternoon of this day, the Chao Bo and a few people were talking about the big competition scene in the morning in the thatched house, but everyone was obviously a little absent-minded, Xiao Tao was in a daze from time to time, but the two brothers stood up frequently and looked out the window. Ping Ze paced restlessly in the room, sitting cross-legged on a straw mat, seemingly calmly knitting straw sandals, and his dexterous hands could be used, but today he made frequent mistakes for some reason.

"Here comes the money!"

At this time, they heard a shout from outside, and everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and stood up in unison.

Then, the door was kicked open, and the thin Ji Ying walked in with a smile on his face, holding a large clay pot, followed by Mu, his pair of big slaps holding a small earthen bowl, and his face was also full of joy.

After that, Heifu and Dongmen Leopard also walked in, brought the door back on, and blocked all envious and jealous eyes out.

Ji Ying and Mu put the utensils in their hands on the ground, and everyone immediately gathered around, but they saw that there were four straw baskets in the basin and bowl, and inside the běn basket were full of golden copper coins!

In this era, bronze was not called bronze, but commonly called "gold", because before oxidation into the soil, copper-tin alloy was actually bright yellow. However, it is different from gold as a superior currency, and it has to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis, and those who understand all gold as copper or all gold as gold without distinction are all hooligans......

So these copper coins were piled together, and they really shone brightly, making everyone's eyes shine with a strange light, especially the few people who had been waiting in the room for a long time, and they couldn't stop laughing.

They are all from poor backgrounds, and they have never seen so much money in their lives!

The most exaggerated is Ping, who knelt on the ground, as if to hug these copper coins, and said happily: "Let me die on it." ”

Chao Bo was calmer and said tremblingly: "These, are there really four thousand dollars?" ”

"Yes." Heifu smiled: "A thousand dollars, Yuanbai gave us a total of four." Ji Ying is not at ease, but he has counted them one by one! It is indeed four thousand dollars, not much for nothing, not much for nothing! ”

Na Yuanbai was simply, in one afternoon, he gathered all the money and sent it, worthy of being a well-known wealthy family in the county, of course, this is because they asked the officials to testify before, set the deed, and there is no way to repay the debt.

As soon as he said this, everyone was relieved, but then the question came, how should this money be divided?

For a while, everyone's eyes were on Heifu, and after so many days, Shi Chang's prestige was in full swing, and everyone listened to him.

"That's what I thought."

Hefu squatted down, chose a bunch, picked up the half-taels of each of the hundred pieces in the string, divided them into five parts, 200 yuan each, and set them aside.

"Mu, Yu, Ping, Ke, No, five of you, 200 yuan per person."

He reached for another dustpan and divided the thousand coins into three parts.

"Ji Ying, Xiao Tao, 300 yuan per person. Chao Bo 400 money. ”

In the end, Heifu picked out another 500 yuan and put it in front of Dongmen Leopard.

"Dongmen Leopard, 500 money."

Then he smiled: "The remaining 1,500 money belongs to me, do you think it's appropriate to divide it like this?" ”

When Heifu divided the money, everyone held their breath and didn't say a word, and only then did they look at each other at the end, some people were satisfied, but some people had some opinions.

"I thought it was ten people divided equally......

Ping, who only took 200 yuan, said a little sourly, and muttered at the same time: "Shi Chang took so much himself......

"You!"

Before Heifu could express his position, Ji Ying and Dongmen Leopard, the two blackmen of the iron, were suddenly furious, but the first one to reprimand Ping was the oldest courtier among the people.

"Ping, you have to talk cool on the side!"

Chao Bo angrily pointed at Ping and said: "You really have no memory, when we said that we didn't want to compete for the first place, it was the chief who made the decision, let us do our best, without the first initiative, there would be no money." ”

"Besides, Shi Chang has been training us day and night in the past few days, and has taken out all the training methods handed down by the family, otherwise you are as stupid as a stupid cow, how can you progress so quickly?"

"In the end, it was Shi Chang who made a contract with Na Yuan Bai, and for the sake of the 4,000 yuan, he put himself in, and if he lost, he would do things alone, and he would go to be a servant for Yuan Bai for two years! We will not be implicated. Now that he has won, he is willing to share the money with us...... I have lived for more than thirty years, and I have never seen a man who has acted so justly. ”

Every time he spoke, Ping's face turned a little whiter, and his head lowered and lowered, until at last he was completely down.

Chao Bo said all the words in his heart that he had been squeezing these days in one breath: "In my opinion, even if Shi Chang takes half of the money, it will be no problem!"

"Chao Bo said a fair word!" Dongmen Leopard, Ji Ying clapped their hands, and Xiao Tao, Yi, Mu and others also nodded yes.

During the whole process, Heifu kept laughing and silent, and waited until the crowd was done to finish the noise before he raised his hand to silence them.

"Actually, there is a reason for me to divide it like this."

"Each of the five gets 200 yuan, which is the reward you deserve for your hard work."

"Ji Ying has been persuading and comforting everyone for me these days, and he has made a small contribution, so he deserves 300."

When Ji Ying heard this, he nodded triumphantly to everyone, money is a trivial matter, and the important thing is that his credit was not missed by his good brothers.

Heifu's eyes looked at Xiao Tao, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Tao was threatened with bribes, but he was not afraid of rape and categorically refused. And he is the fastest learner and the most standard of all the people, and the people behind him are basically based on him, am I right? Therefore, it deserves 300 dollars. “

Xiao Tao scratched his head embarrassedly, and his face turned red again.

"As for the court." Heifu waved at him and said: "Chao Bo is an old soldier, he knows everything these days, and he has helped me improve my training method, and he is an elder, so he deserves 400 yuan." ”

"It should be done, it should be done." Chaobo's goat's beard trembled slightly.

"Dongmen Leopard is the captain of the army, and he has been assisting me with all his strength these days, not to mention this, he deserves 500 money." Dongmen Leopard nodded at Heifu, Heifu had already discussed with him in advance about the money, Dongmen Leopard valued righteousness over wealth, and had no opinion at all, it was all up to Heifu.

Heifu said this, paused slightly, and pointed to himself again: "As for me, Chao Bo has already said it, so I won't boast." If anyone thinks that my money is unfair, they can bring it up, and if everyone thinks it is reasonable, I will give you all this money without taking a penny! ”

After speaking, his eyes swept to everyone, and everyone was silent, including the one with the greatest opinion, and no one dared to say a word.

"200 is enough." Yu was very content to pick up his share of money and said with a smile: "You can let me buy a thick winter coat and add two pairs of coarse cloth shoes, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?" ”

"Yes, it's fair to be long, we have nothing to say!" His younger brother Mu rarely said something.

"In addition to money, Shi Chang also divided wine and meat with us, and helped us reduce next year's service, so generous, if you dare to complain, it is really a conscience eaten by pigs and dogs!" Ji Ying cursed.

The others chimed in, pocketing their money, and laughter resumed in the room......

……

Although it was done behind closed doors, there was Ji Ying's big mouth, which soon came out, and the soldiers talked about it and envied it.

In this way, by the evening, the matter of "Heifu splitting the money" had reached the ears of Du Xian, the right lieutenant of the county, through the mouth of Chen Baijiang.

"Good, it seems that this Gongshi Heifu not only has a martial arts, can do his job well, and train the rabble in an orderly manner, but also rewards the average reasonable, and is a talent."

He looked at Chen Baijiang: "Such a person, if he is not an official, is our dereliction of duty......

"What do you mean?"

Chen Baijiang was stunned, although he saw the right lieutenant's appreciation of Heifu, he never expected that Du Xian had plans to make Heifu an official!

Counting up, Heifu has a knighthood, is already an adult, and the hard conditions for being an official have been met. But after this incident, this person completely made a feud with Zuo Wei and General Binbai. At this moment, the right lieutenant wants to let him be an official, what does this mean? Is it to completely turn the other cheek with Lieutenant Zuo? Or do you just want to keep Lieutenant Zuo in his throat before he is transferred?

Moreover, there are many ways for the Qin State to appoint officials, and the right lieutenant wants to recommend it in person? Or do you let the localities make their own choices? Or do you ask for a prefectural conscription? The first is too risky, and the last two are not easy.

"There's no urgency."

Du Xian waved his hand and said, "Let me take a look at this person's temperament, and it's not too late to wait until the end of the service!" ”

……

On the other hand, Heifu didn't know what the right lieutenant and Chen Baijiang had discussed, and after the end of the ten-day competition, all the guards began to assemble together, holding bamboo and wooden sticks, and began to practice "dividing and merging, knotting and dissolving".

After learning this, they are qualified reservists, who may be drafted into the army at any time, distribute weapons, conduct more specialized training, and then set foot on the real battlefield.

He has the previous foundation, and he is also the fastest to complete the action when he is practicing together, but Heifu always feels that Chen Baijiang, who trained them, has always looked at himself meaningfully these days, and his attitude is no longer the arrogance of the previous kindness, but has become an enthusiastic envelope......

As for General Bin Bai, he has not appeared since he was severely punished by the right lieutenant that day, and squatted and jumped ten laps on this school field in front of the guard and the county guard. It is said that it is to nourish the body, after all, it is ten laps of frog jumping, and the legs are about to break. And in the future, General Bin Bai may no longer be able to gain a foothold in the school, and it is said that he may be transferred to several townships below Anlu County.

On the morning of October 15, after the last joint training, the guards were allowed to rest for half a day, but were not allowed to go out, and from tomorrow they would begin to work even harder, and the good days would come to an end.

Hefu returned to the hut and discussed with everyone whether he should cut the dried meat that Dabi had rewarded him for the next day, so as to improve the diet.

He said that he was going to divide all the meat, but the people were embarrassed, so they only asked Heifu to divide five sticks, and left five sticks to dry, and took them home after his service. Anyway, the jerky is salted, and it won't spoil in the winter.

As for being stolen? I'm sorry, Qin Law stipulates that even if you cut a small piece of meat the size of your thumb in the past, even if it is not worth a penny, you will be punished as a crime of theft, and you will have a black hair on your head, and you will never see anyone again.

With Heifu taking the lead, Dongmen Leopard also took out two of the five dried meats he got and gave them to everyone to eat. In this way, everyone can eat some meat every day, and life is not happy.

At this moment, Ji Ying, who went to borrow the kettle, came back, and the guy shouted loudly outside the house: "Heifu, someone outside the school yard came to you, saying that it was your brother!" ”
